Also not historic, the name of the website notwithstanding, but a partial reconstruction of a small pueblo site (ca. AD 1225-1300; not 1100 as the website says) directly over the original structure, which was excavated in the 1960s, backfilled, re-excavated in the 1980s, re-backfilled, and is buried beneath the reconstruction.

Isn't it interesting that most of the responses are about forts?

If we are talking also about reconstructions on original sites, Ft. Niagara,
Ft. Oswego, Ft. Stanwix, Ft. Ticonderoga and Ft. William Henry in New York
should go on the list. I believe Jamestown also has an off-site
reconstruction.
